Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 155: Chapter 108: Sorry for Calling You Poor, I was Hasty (Please Subscribe)_2

The man was keenly aware and sensed the danger, immediately activating his Water Displacement Talisman, regardless of the consequences.

He even risked hurting himself as he took a blow from Liu Qiang.

The two stood under the eaves, watching the snowflakes fall.

”I’m certain we’ll get you a satisfactory answer, but looking at the current evidence, we can rule out the involvement of several major powers. It seems like it’s just a rogue Calamity Cultivator,”

A rogue can be linked to ’pure’ too, huh!

”Could it be that Gao Tingyuan is targeting me?” Luo Chen suddenly mentioned a name.

Mi Shuhua pondered for a moment and shook his head.

”It shouldn’t be him. After all, I’ve already warned Wang Haichao about him last time.”

”I’ll also give you a heads up. If the Jade Marrow Pills are sold in other markets in the future, we will be in cooperation with the Great Lake Gang. He wouldn’t kill the goose that lays the golden egg.”

Luo Chen scoffed. ”That’s what you Foundation Establishment Cultivators think, but it has nothing to do with Gao Tingyuan.”

”You have a point,” Mi Shuhua acknowledged after some consideration. ”I’ll give Wang Haichao another heads up, ask him to watch out for Gao Tingyuan. Whether it’s him or not, danger needs to be nipped in the bud.”

”With your assurances, I feel more at ease.”

Luo Chen yawned, waved his hand signaling to leave. Just before he did depart, it looked as if he remembered something.

”Gang Leader, as the weather turns cold, those cultivators in the Pill Hall are likely have a not-too-pleasant time.”

With that, he walked away grandly, leaving four cultivators with him. Each of them was tall and formidable, with the lowest among them at the Seventh Level Qi Refinement.

Once Liu Qiang returned from recovering his injuries, his squad of bodyguards would expand to five.

Who else in The Great River District could boast of having five late-stage Qi Refinement cultivators as bodyguards?

Mi Shuhua stood under the eaves, still mulling over certain matters.

The sound of footsteps came from behind, and without turning his head, he asked, ”Ping ’Er, what’s up?”

Mi Junping exclaimed excitedly, ”Sikong Shoujia brought over last month’s account book from the Pill Hall. I found that last month, over 4000 Jade Marrow Pills were refined, with as many as 1200 being Medium Grade Jade Marrow Pills!”

Mi Shuhua was taken aback before a look of ecstatic joy crossed his face.

Over a thousand Medium Grade Jade Marrow Pills, ten per bottle, and fifty Spirit Stones per bottle, yielded over five thousand Spirit Stones.

Adding in the Lower Grade Jade Marrow Pills...

Minus the costs of materials and labor, Mi Shuhua could earn at least two thousand Spirit Stones in net profit!

And this was just one month’s earnings!

With a few years of this, he could even afford to buy a Defense Magic Item.

Even if he didn’t buy a Defense Magic Item, he wouldn’t have to worry too much about the resources required to progress from Middle Stage to Late Stage Foundation Establishment.

Moreover, as Luo Chen became more proficient in refining Jade Marrow Pills, the profits would likely increase.

”Indeed, it was the best decision to invest heavily in Luo Chen.”

”I knew it from the moment I learned that he was responsible for the Medium Grade Elixir. Luo Chen would be my benefactor on the path of cultivation!”

Listening to her father’s excited monologue,

Mi Junping couldn’t help but ask, ”Is Luo Chen really that important?”

”Ping ’Er, remember, a Pill Refiner is always the most precious talent in the world of Immortal Cultivation!”

”You cannot offend them, let them have a negative impression of you, or cause any conflicts.”

”In case of any conflicts, either resolve the conflict immediately or get rid of the Pill Refiner by any means necessary.”

Mi Junping was about to retort but thought of the profits the Pill Hall could bring in the last month and fell silent.

When his ecstasy wore off, Mi Shuhua gradually calmed down.

That profit wasn’t easy to earn, he still had to give up some benefits to others.

”Ping ’Er, help me send an invitation to Yu Ding Sword Pavilion and ask a distinguished guest to come dine in Zhong Ding Family tomorrow evening.”

”Also, get in touch with the Nangong Family. They just moved from the Xuelian District and are very familiar with the area. I need specific information on a man named Dan Xiu.”

Later, I’m going to visit the Great Lake Gang. Tell someone to inform Wang Yuan of Jiao Hall to accompany me.”

After his lengthy list of instructions, he seemed to still have more to add. Looking at his daughter, a new idea popped into his head.

Before Mi Junping’s astonished gaze, he brought up another matter.

”Your Dao Companion passed away many years ago. Would you consider finding another one?”

...

Luo Chen was unaware that another person was making marriage arrangements on his behalf.

He returned to Inner City with his bodyguards in tow. The sun was still high, so he first went to the Yuan Family.

When he settled last month’s profits, he found that there were fifty Spirit Stones more than before.

”I met a kind man who wanted to buy more Immortal Beans because they taste good.”

”I said I couldn’t sell all to him as we still had other regular customers.”

”He insisted on buying even if it meant paying more. This extra fifty Spirit Stones was his tip.”

Luo Chen had a complex expression. They spent quite a sum to rob him!

After sighing, Luo Chen started dividing profits.

Gross income was seven hundred Spirit Stones.

Since he’s no longer giving out a fixed salary, he has to remove the cost before to calculate profit sharing with Yuan Xiaoyue, aside from her fixed salary.

And the costs of the Immortal Beans and popcorn?

Estimating liberally, it doesn’t exceed a hundred Spirit Stones.

High profit, right!

Precisely because the profit was high, that’s what drew so many imitators.

Given that the market is limited and it’s hard to scale up, Luo Chen had even considered starting his own factory to produce the beans and popcorn next to the Pill Hall.
